Low Carbohydrate Diet

All the prospective Poirots, Holmes, Hardy boys and Nancy Drews pay attention. Low carb diets are here to tantalise your grey cells and provide with the much desired exercise for the brain!

Atkins diet, south beach diet, zone diet and the likes all work on the low carb principle.

Restriction of carbohydrates and inclusion of high protein and fat foods is the mantra. Sound simple but try letting go off those lovely fruits and vegetables, bakery stuff, rive, wheat, breakfast cereals, pasta. the list goes on! Sparing you the torture of the ordeal to follow I will stop listing the various carb foods. Low carb diets are the order of the day. Carbohydrates which were the main nutrient in the diets comprising abut 60-70% of the total calories ingested have been reduced to either negligible or none at all.
